One of the benefits of our team managing cardboard recycling during move-in is meeting hundreds of parents a day. Here are some positive messages from some of @BU_Tweets' newest families. Good luck Terriers on your first day of classes!!!

The City of Boston’s Climate Action reports detail the threats we face, including rising sea levels, soaring temperatures, and frequent extreme weather events—all disproportionately impacting our most vulnerable communities.

Not only that, renting textbooks is #sustainable!
📚 This year, nearly 75% of all Barnes & Noble @ BU textbooks are available as rentals, which can lead to big savings.

Welcome back, Terriers! During move-in, use the designated “cardboard corrals” to dispose of your broken-down boxes. Be sure to say hello to our BU Sustainability team members, and thank you for recycling during move-in! @BU_Tweets @BUStudentGov

With move-in day right around the corner, overpasses all over the Boston area need your help. They need to not be hit by a moving truck on Storrow Drive or Soldiers Field in Boston & Memorial Drive in Cambridge. Plan your move in day route accordingly & watch for the signs!

Huge huge win, in Montana of all places, as a judge rules kids have a right to a safe climate. This state has more coal than any state in the country, and has never denied a fossil fuel permit--but change is coming! https://t.co/X433VOyYwN
